Stop sending emails you later regret!

http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/new-in-labs-stop-sending-mail-you-later.html

This is a great function (specially for me)!! lol

I dont know why but when i get drunk with my friends and get back home and if i am still able to do something,,,, i post some weird stuff on some iranian foros i hang out and i send some weird emails or make some stupid phone calls.
Last time i wrote a really perverted email to a girl i know and she was really shocked.
And it took me great pain to put the things right again.

Escribano and Ron, you should also implement such a function for this foro LOL

Arash...I never regret any post or email I send.
Even if I'm pissed or just an off the cuff or spur of the moment thing.
Quite often you're just saying what you REALLY feel at the time.

That's why I don't really care about personal attacks and stuff.

It's just how the person felt at the time and doesn't really mean much more.

Just transient stuff.

The thing I hate most are measured and carefully thought out words from Politicians and Business people and the like, trying to make you believe the exact opposite of what they really feel...

Now THAT is what I find insulting and offensive.

cheers,

Ron

Hi Ron. I like this definition of political skill

' The ability to exploit peoples preconceptions in order to find the shortest path from what they believe to what you want them to believe.'

Of course the actual belief of the practitioner need not be referenced by the arguments that they propose.

I personally believe that YOU are honest and spontaneous in most of what you say, as well as obviously and openly provocative when the mood takes you. I find it touching that you seem to assume that others here lack an agenda. Where there is hypocrisy there is politics. Do you see any here ?

@ Arash. I'm not even drunk !!
